Hi Roger, I should have twigged that you were using a K3 not a K2, so many thanks to Bruce N1RX for his comment.
The low power drive solution would be the best option IF you had the time, provided of course that the IMD contributed by any additional amp if required in the transverter was insignificant. Good luck this weekend! 73, Geoff GM4ESD On June 29, 2011 at 09:10 Z, Roger Dixon wrote: > Hi Bruce > Thanks for clearing up the confusion that I caused. > > Yes, your solution of the low power out is really the way to go. > > However (!!)
